Forty Weeks Founder Julia Beck takes you behind the velvet ropes in the brave new world of Bump and Baby. Pregnancy trends, media coverage of parenting, research and recent findings, celebrity pregnancy and baby, the business that keeps it all in motion are among the topics that Julia covers in her signature candid and open style.
I have no idea what Webster's says about it – but Julia says: Back Labor is the ultimate pain on the way to the most delicious reward! Back labor hurts like a bitch, but it's all worth it in the end. And that about sums up our "lives behind the velvet ropes" here at Forty Weeks. We invite you into our Labor Room – via the Forty Weeks' Back Labor Blog. Read about how we do what we do, and follow along our labor of love that really pays off for our clients, and hear a little about the juicy behind-the-scenes bits, too!
And Forty Weeks wouldn't be who we are without the people – our dedicated crew and the BFFs of Forty Weeks and, of course – you too! We love to hear your comments, so please join in the conversation.
First, let us first establish that I believe Ben and Jerry are capable of almost anything. They are super-dudes – strong and alluring. They are my loyal and ever-sweet partners in crime. I believe in the power of da boys…well, it turns out – I was right!
A study out shows that an increase in high-fat dairy foods (Ben and Jerry can do that!!!) will help a woman to conceive. According to an article published this week:
Eating fatty dairy foods such as ice cream and heavy cream may help a woman become pregnant, say researchers in a report published in Human Reproduction. Likewise, consuming low-fat dairy foods may hinder reproduction.
Specifically, the more ice cream a woman ate, the lower her risk of infertility. This may be due to increased insulin sensitivity, which promotes ovulation.
Next we can look for people to name their babies after the flavor of the month (ha!) – ya know – Chunky Monkey (that would have been Lila) or Half Baked (Sam)!
